A chair is only as good as its seat.
As artisan seat weavers, we can offer the most intricate weaving methods using multiple materials, including Danish cord, seagrass, fibre rush, cane or rattan, and Shaker tape.
We've extensive experience restoring woven chairs, tables, daybeds, and even headboards for iconic designers.
Caning Canada and Vintage Chair Canada save woven treasures one piece at a time while travelling this beautiful Country in our RV.
We pride ourselves on providing the highest quality restoration and weaving services. Our experience as vintage furniture weavers and finishers uses traditional methods and high-quality materials to bring your vintage furniture back to life.
We are passionate about our craft and committed to providing the best customer experience.

Our
Travel Schedule
Mid-April to Mid-October, Alberta
Caning Canada will be in Cochrane, Alberta, from mid-April through mid-October, with meets in Calgary, Edmonton, Lethbridge, and Red Deer once we have a truckload of projects.
We'll make a run to our BC storage at the end of July and can pick up any chairs that folks in Alberta are interested in purchasing. No deposit is required. I'm keeping a list and will just make my way down the list until chairs are purchased, so let me know if you're interested in any of them.
Mid-October to Mid-April, British Columbia
Located in Fort Langley, BC, we serve outlying areas by offering meet-ups to pick up and return weaving projects in Abbotsford, Chilliwack, Kamloops, and Kelowna via Merrit to serve the Okanagan, including Penticton, Vernon, Nanaimo, Vancouver, and Victoria once we have a truckload of projects.
We can bring purchased chairs to these meets. If we have room in our truck, we can bring chairs if anyone wants to look at them for purchase. Check out what we have in our shop.
Please send us photos of your project to get an estimate, and let us know where you're located!

Weaving Restoration Estimates
Caning Canada wants to make the restoration of your woven family heirloom or newly discovered treasure obtainable.
Our pricing is based on the weaving style, the material used, and the attachment process, not the value of the woven piece you need to repair.

Where are you located?We're seat weaving while RVing. Caning Canada will be in Cochrane, Alberta, from mid-April through mid-October, with meets in Calgary, Edmonton, Lethbridge, and Red Deer once we have a truckload of projects. In our winter season we're located in Fort Langley, BC, we serve outlying areas by offering meet-ups to pick up and return weaving projects in Abbotsford, Chilliwack, Kamloops, and Kelowna via Merrit to serve the Okanagan, including Penticton, Vernon, Nanaimo, Vancouver, and Victoria once we have a truckload of projects. Many pieces can be mailed for weaving so if we're not coming to your area contact us to find out if your pieces can be mailed for weaving.

Why do you charge a fee for folks taking part in meetups?We schedule meetups in outlying areas to pick up and return weaving projects once we've booked a truckload of projects. We charge $50 per chair to cover the costs of holding meet-ups in outlying areas. We do not charge any additional monies for surfaces, shelves, or folding chairs as we can fit them in with the chairs in such a way that they don't take up additional space in the truck. We don't charge any fees for meets in Calgary or Vancouver as they are close to our location.
-
Can you stain the fresh cane?We live and work in our RV so do not offer an staining services. Cane doesn't need to be stained and can be left to age naturally. If you'd like to stain your cane, we can give you some scrap to colour test on.
-
Do you offer classes or sell materials?We're seat weaving while RVing. Due to the nature of our lifestyle, we do not offer instruction or material sales.

If you would like to mail your woven chair seats, backs, or shelves to Caning Canada for weaving repair, most chair seats and backs can be removed and posted to our Cochrane, Alberta summer site.
